Should state add 'gender X' as option on birth certificates?
SEATTLE -- A change could be coming to birth certificates in the state of Washington.
Next year, a third option may be available beyond just 'male' or 'female.' The third option would be gender 'X'.
It doesn't come without controversy.
But as Jon Humbert found out at a state Department of Health's hearing on the proposal Tuesday, it's about more than just about a name -- lives could be at stake.
